Two Famous Men.

There are two men in Washington who
a'trtc AZ muca attention almost as any
OF the members Of the Cabinet or OF Con-
gress. Tl-f are Mr.. ". ". C1rcoran,
the millionaire aud pbilantbroplsT, and
George Bancroft, the historian. What
wonderful men they are; How very
FAR hark into the e r!y DAYS Of tue Re
public tHeir memories reach. Corcoran
il e!ghfy-eight and Bancroft IS eignty-six.
Corc0rsn had made fortune before some
Of the younger mIiiiouaires OF to-day were
born, and Bancroft occup ed leading
place in the government when MI.
CIeVeland's greatest De ight was
ma iug mud pies, and toraging
for jam in his mo'her's pantry. The
wo-A o neither OF them is wholly done
yet. The h.lsutbropIst is still doin
charitable deeds when I'LL his own hear
WitD quiet happiness and bring com ort
INTO manv a nome. Tne historian Is
working away at the history which has
been bis Ire work. Both seem TO be con-
tented, although they know that the day
cannot be distant when they must join
the silent majority.
They Will be long remembered after
they are gone. Few have builded mnnu-
meuts so lasting as theirs will prove to
be. The Corcoran gallery and the Louise
Home will recall the pnilanthr0pIsL even
after decay has made its appearance in
the pillars OF the W nite House, and Ban
croi's history will MAKE mis- name famil-
lar to those wno iahabit the world a
thousand years hence.

DonIittle,s snnrage Theory.

The household suffrage theory advanced
by ex senator Doolijtle, OF Wisconsin,
several years ago. and recently discussed
by b m in sp ech in Chicago, contains
some features which are interesting.
Briefly stated, "nousebold suffrage" al
lows 70 every married citizen TWO votes,
one tor himself and one iOr his household.
In the first place the plan puts
premium on MARI age. Al the pres
ent day many influences are at work
far from friendly to the perpetuatlon Of
the matrimonial contract. The socialIstic
element openly aims at the subs hutton
for marriage of promiscuous relation
of the sexes and the destruction
Of the family and lis domestic and civil.
